Years 3-6 Nippers Surf Life Saving Program

Students in Years 3-6 have an exciting opportunity to participate in two separate Nippers Surf Life Saving days to take place this term at the Chelsea Yacht Club. This is a great opportunity for the school and its students to utilise its amazing surroundings and connect with the local community. The Nippers day involves an array of activities aimed at improving fitness, developing teamwork and lifesaving skills. These activities will be conducted with the expert instruction given by Chelsea Yacht Club members and the supervision of EPS teachers. Swimming in schools funding has been allocated to this program so there will be no cost associated with these days. Students may wish to pack a snack to eat after the program and please note a rash vest or t-shirt is an essential item and we cannot allow your child to participate without one.

Dates:

• Thursday 28 November & Thursday 5 December
  

Times:

• Years 3 & 4:   9:45 - 11:30 am
  
• Years 5 & 6:   12:00 - 2:00 pm
  

Venue:

• Chelsea Yacht Club        
  

Cost:

• $0 (Swimming in schools funding has been allocated to this program so there will be no cost associated with these days).        
  

Students will travel by train to the Yacht Club with their teachers, just prior to the commencement of the program. Children are encouraged to wear their swimming attire underneath their school uniform to maximise time.

• Students will need to bring a snack or packed lunch (depending on program time) as they will not be on the school grounds to make use of our canteen.
• All students will need bathers, a rash vest/t-shirt, goggles (optional), beach towel, water bottle, sunscreen, hat, thongs and a plastic bag.

Parents/Friends are invited to come along to support their children and watch the program.

Kind regards,
